be_v interpret_v in_o the_o chapter_n follow_v all_o nation_n have_v drink_v 18_o apo._n 18_o of_o the_o wine_n of_o the_o wrath_n of_o her_o fornication_n but_o where_o he_o say_v a_o adversary_n that_o exalt_v himself_o above_o all_o that_o be_v call_v god_n and_o sit_v as_o god_n in_o the_o temple_n of_o god_n by_o the_o figure_n synecdoche_n he_o mean_v only_o the_o head_n and_o prince_n of_o that_o apostasy_n and_o revoltment_n from_o christ_n wherefore_o antichrist_n be_v to_o be_v understand_v in_o this_o place_n in_o the_o first_o division_n according_a to_o the_o three_o

understand_v in_o this_o place_n i_o define_v he_o in_o this_o manner_n antichrist_n be_v a_o succession_n of_o bishop_n decipher_v out_o by_o certain_a note_n and_o mark_n in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n which_o profess_v the_o name_n of_o christ_n do_v oppose_v themselves_o against_o he_o in_o many_o chief_a point_n of_o christian_a religion_n that_o he_o be_v not_o one_o particular_a man_n but_o a_o whole_a succession_n of_o many_o man_n i_o prove_v by_o these_o two_o reason_n first_o it_o be_v prophesy_v that_o antichrist_n that_o purple_a harlot_n shall_v make_v drink_v with_o the_o wine_n 18_o apo._n 18_o of_o her_o formication_n all_o the_o nation_n of_o the_o earth_n and_o that_o antichrist_n that_o two_o horn_a beast_n shall_v give_v life_n to_o the_o image_n of_o the_o beast_n 13_o apoc._n 13_o which_o be_v destroy_v that_o be_v he_o shall_v restore_v the_o decay_a state_n of_o the_o roman_a empire_n by_o set_v up_o new_a emperor_n in_o the_o west_n which_o in_o respect_n of_o the_o former_a emperor_n be_v but_o image_n and_o very_a shadow_n that_o he_o shall_v make_v many_o people_n &_o kingdom_n subject_a unto_o himself_o but_o these_o thing_n can_v not_o be_v bring_v to_o pass_v in_o one_o man_n age_n therefore_o antichrist_n be_v not_o one_o man_n but_o a_o succession_n of_o many_o second_o no_o one_o methusalem_n can_v live_v from_o the_o apostle_n time_n unto_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n but_o antichrist_n be_v describe_v in_o the_o scripture_n to_o be_v such_o a_o one_o as_o must_v live_v from_o the_o apostle_n time_n until_o the_o end_n
